NPG32433 - Amen to that. Now the struggle is, which team to run out there first?!?

Mine are eerily similar so I may just flip a coin... In all seriousness, I will put the statistically better team out there first, even if it is just a couple points on the overall OPS or WHIP. Can't use Round 2 team if I don't get there. Since I have never seen the second round, I cannot be presumptive!

I did the same NPG. My teams were so close to each other, I finally just took the better whip team, even though it was just a difference of 0.02

One team Hulk (hitting), one team Banner (pitching). Who wants a picture with Ant Man?

Paul Rudd is very underrated...

For $120M, can you use your Long Reliever Stud in your starting rotation? And does your Closer Stud have to be assigned the role of "closer?"

The rule only says you have to draft them. What you do with them and how you use them is up to you.

Use them however you like

Its kinda nice to see that all of the commishes are having a time with the 110 mil team. I thought I was the only one.

They're just waiting on me

110 mil gave me tired head.

I'm going to have to revisit when my brain cells are willing to do the work.

$80M: Top Dollar
You can only draft a player's most expensive season.

Other Specifics
Seasons: All
DH: No
WW: No
AAA: No
Trades: No
Clones: No
Injuries: Turned On
Multi-team players: No restrictions (i.e., you can use partial or combined)
Ballpark: Use the park that your most expensive player played in.
300K Exception: Yes
Team Name: No restrictions
Division Alignment: Random

Clarifying, "only most expensive season" and "you can use partial pr combined" refers to only using the highest salaried iteration of a player? i.e., only a partial if the partial is more than the combined (such as 1902 Nap Lajoie) or is it you can use a partial season even if it's not the highest salaried iteration so long as it's from the "most expensive season)?

I drafted with the former in mind, but I'd hate to have missed this opportunity to get some players I'd have liked better...

The former

This is a struggle. Both my teams are even in salary. One holds the hitting and defense advantage, the other the pitching advantage. If the team I pick doesn’t cut it, there will be much second guessing.

Maybe I'm missing something, but if your Round 2 team can go both directions in X years, then how do you have a decision to make over which team to use? You can only use the one with the base years unless all 25 players are going + or - only. Then, I suppose, you'd have a decision.
